Maybe It's the Start

JULY 11th, 2015

"Beck, why are we going back here? This seems like a silly way to end a date," Jade smiles as she and Beck run in the rain towards Hollywood Arts. The small family had come back since Jade had a break in filming and they had a week off between summer semesters, so they came to celebrate the fourth of July and Beck's upcoming birthday on the nineteenth with their families.

"Cause I want to see how it's changed," Beck pulls her into the protective awning that covers the main door of the school.

"It's not worth getting caught in the rain for because now I look like a mess," Beck looks back at Jade, her dark hair clinging to her face, her make-up holding up remarkably well, and a soft smile playing on her face. Her black dress clings to her body, and his eyes follow the water trailing down her shapely legs to her black heels. She looked beautiful.

"No, you look stunning," Beck pulls her in for a passionate kiss by wrapping one of his arms around her back, and her arms circle around his neck, loosely.

"You have to say that," The couple smile at each other.

"Doesn't mean that I don't mean it," Jade presses their foreheads together and closes her eyes, reveling in his closeness.

"I bet it's locked,"

"I bet you're wrong,"

"What do I get if I'm right?" Jade smiles coyly at him.

"I will wear a 'Property of Jade West' t-shirt for a month," Jade laughs, "now what do I get if I win?"

"We will go to the cafe and have sex on our table…just like you always fantasized about," Beck smiled and silently thanked whatever deity was up there.

"Well, it's a good thing you wore a dress," Beck puts his hand on the door handle and throws open the door, and watches Jade's jaw drop, "oh, I should mention that I knew it was unlocked,"

"You son of a…" Beck raises a finger and starts moving it side-to-side.

"Uh, uh, uh, you made the bet fair and square," Beck pulls her into the school and quickly presses against the nearest wall, putting his knee in between her legs, "and I am going to enjoy collecting my winnings." Beck captures Jade's lips with his and presses his knee upwards, causing Jade's black nails to dig into his shoulders and a low moan to escape her body. The couple breaks apart with a smile and Jade's eyes flick over to her old locker.

"Oh, what the fuck?!" Beck's eyes follow Jade's and sees that her old locker is covered in a ton of different kinds of flowers. Beck lets out a laugh, and Jade walks over to it with a scowl, taking some scissors out of her purse, and cutting some of them up. Beck stops her.

"Hey, that's someone else's' locker now," Jade just glares at him before turning to his old locker, and her face forms into a smirk.

"Looks like mine wasn't the only one affected," Beck looks at his old locker to see that is covered in locks.

"Well, how ironic," Beck walks up to it, and Jade sends the scissors through the center of her old locker before following him.

"Beck, why are we here?" Beck smiles and takes her hand and walks her towards the cafe. The two look around the cafe and see that is covered in string lights, that are off, and picture frames handing from some rigging. "I guess they're getting ready for something,"

"Yea…I guess," Jade saunters over to their old table, the rain had turned into a light mist.

"So, are we doing this, Oliver?"

"Not right now," Jade runs her hand over the table with a smile, reminiscing over the fond memories. Jade's eye flick upwards as a soft white glow fills the cafe and Elvis Presley's "Can't Help Falling in Love with You" softly fills the air.

"Then when?" Jade laughs and turns around, her smile falls. In the center of the cafe, surrounded by soft string lights with some empty frames and other picture frames with cycling photos of Beck and Jade, was Beck on one knee with a ring. Jade's hand reaches up to cover her mouth and she feels tears welling up in her eyes.

"After you say yes," Jade cautiously walks up to Beck.

"Yes to what?" Beck smiles and looks downward before looking back up to meet Jade's blue eyes.

"Well, hopefully, to being my wife," Jade looks down at the opal engagement ring surrounded by a halo of diamonds on a silver band, encrusted with more diamonds, before taking it from him.

"And why would I do something like that?" Beck stands up and takes her hands into his and slides the ring onto her left ring finger.

"Because I love you with everything I have, and I can't picture my life with anyone other than you and I don't want to because why look for anyone else when I've found someone so perfect. Who challenges me and loves me through everything," Beck reaches up and brushes away some of Jade's tears, "Jade, you are my everything. You've given me so much, and all you've ever asked me to do is love you and support you. We've started a journey together, and I don't want it to ever end. I know you're hesitant of marriages, but I hope you'll let me spend a lifetime proving you wrong," Jade places her left hand on Beck's chest, the ring glittering in the soft glow of the lights, and brings her face close to his, barely centimeters away from her.

"It's a very pretty ring,"

"I'm glad you like it. I spent a really long time customizing it because I knew your ring had to be unique and…"

"Yes," Beck stops his sentence with a smile while his hands wrap around Jade's face, and he brings her in for a searing kiss. Jade's hands loosely move around Beck's neck. Beck's hands travel downward, and settle on Jade's thighs, lifting her up, which causes her legs to instinctively wrap around his midsection. Beck walks them over to the table and sits Jade down on the table top.

"Time to make good on your bet, future wife." Jade pulls away, allowing her left hand to cup his face, smiling up at her fianceé.

"Gladly, future husband," Beck captures her lips once more while Jade's hands go to undo his belt buckle while Beck's hands push Jade's dress up to her hips. A smile plays on both of their lips while they make quick work of each other's undergarments, while in Jade's case, lack of. Beck raises an eyebrow. "I wanted to be prepared." Beck swiftly enters Jade causing a sweet sigh to escape her mouth, which Beck quickly silences. He stands and places her back down onto the table, holding one of her legs firmly against his side. Jade's hand covers the one holding her thigh, and the cool metal of her ring feels good against his heated skin, as he thrusts deeply into her.

SEPTEMBER 9th, 2015

Beck lounges on the couch, while Kady naps on his chest and he reads part of his homework assignment before heading to class when his phone rings. He reaches for it before gently taking Kady off of him, placing her on a pillow and covering her up with a blanket. He walks out onto their balcony before gently shutting the door.

"Hello?"

"Beck!" A rough voice comes through the speaker.

"Marcus, how are you?"

"Oh boy, do I have something for you?!" Beck looks through the glass door to spy on his still sleeping daughter.

"Uh huh, yeah sure, what is it?"

"Kid, are you even listening?" Beck's attention snaps back to his call.

"Yea, I am, promise, so what's this role?"

"So, a big-time producer saw you in that small story-arc you did on SVU, and he loved you. He wants to give you lead in this new movie,"

"Wait, what?" Beck leans over the balcony railing, looking over the street below.

"I got you a movie gig, kid!"

"Holy shit!"

"And the best part is that it films in New York, so you can stick around," Beck smiles widely.

"Thanks, Marcus!"

"Not a problem, kid, it's what I do. Now, I'll send you over the details. Call that pretty little fianceé of yours and tell her the good news,"

"I will! Bye, Marcus!"

"Bye, Beck." Beck hangs up the phone and grips it tightly as he looks down at it. He lets out a happy shout, and he turns to go back inside to see Kady licking the glass of the balcony door. He stares at her and she stares at him, mid-lick.

"Don't lick the glass, Kady," Kady lean backs and smiles while Beck enters the apartments, "that's icky." Kady giggles and Beck picks her up into his arms. He places a soft kiss on the forehead, "Daddy, just got some big news, and he can't wait to tell Mommy,"

"What can't Daddy wait to tell Mommy?" Beck turns around as Jade throws her keys into the bowl next to the door before shutting it behind her.

"Some big news," Jade walks up to Beck, and they share a quick kiss before taking Kady from him.

"And what's that?" Jade looks at Kady, "Hi, baby, Mommy missed you today, but we get to hang out today because Mommy's class was canceled. Are you excited?"

"Yes!" Kady happily giggles as she wiggles out of her mom's arms and runs to her room.

"So excited that she ran away." Jade looks at her daughter's retreating figure.

"Jaaaaaaaaaaade," Beck whines and takes Jade into his arms while hers wrap around his neck.

"Yes?"

"I have news,"

"Are you pregnant this time?" Beck laughs as Jade smirks.

"No,"

"What a relief, I don't think we can afford two children. So, what is it?" Jade places a lazy kiss on Beck's lips.

"I got a role," Jade jolts herself away from Beck, and looks at him wide-eyed, "in a movie. As a lead," Jade lets out an excited squeal and jumps onto Beck, wrapping her legs around him.

"Oh my god!" Jade brings his face to her placing hundreds of kisses all over his face while he spins them around. "Beck! This is so exciting!"

"You're telling me," Beck stops spinning and looks deeply into his fianceé's eyes, "and I wouldn't have been able to do it without you,"

"You did that all by yourself, you amazing actor, you," Jade presses her forehead against Beck, and drops her voice to start imitating him, "I'm Beck. I know about acting. I say words." Beck lets out a laugh and the couple falls back on the couch. Beck places his head on Jade's lap, and she starts to gently stroke his brown locks.

"This could be the start…" Beck's face suddenly gets a look of worry on his face, "…or the downfall of my acting career."

"It's the start," Jade leans down and places a soft kiss on his lips, pulling away far enough so their eyes can meet, "just you wait."

SEPTEMBER 20, 2015

Jade taps around on her phone as she snacks on some candy and scratches her head filled with uncomfortable curlers.

Newcomer Jade West nominated for 2015 Emmy, but does she deserve it?

Shouldn't Jade West be focused on her daughter rather than acting on an MA-rated show?

Does Jade even spend time with Kady and Beck since landing her show? What will happen when Beck's movie starts?

Jade and Beck heading for splitsville? Sources close to the couple says that differing schedules have caused a strain on their relationship

Jade is failing out of NYU. Find out what her GPA is.

Jade rolls her eyes at the never-ending flow of bullshit stories that have been surfacing since getting the nomination for the Emmy. Everything in her life had come under scrutiny. Her talent as an actor. Her competency as a mother. Her dedication to just about everything. Even her love for Beck especially since the "cheating scandal" from a few months ago. Normally she didn't let things to get to her, but it was all coming at her twenty-four-seven that it was getting hard to ignore.

"What about this one, Jade?" Jade looked up from her phone to Elaine, her co-star on Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll. She's holding up a tight, low-cut wine-colored dress with a slit all the way up to the hip.

"It's cute, but I think it's too much for my first award show, don't you think?" Jade stands up and runs her hands over the soft fabric.

"You're up for an Emmy for playing Gigi, a sexy rocker chick, who doesn't usually have huge curlers in her hair," Jade laughs.

"We're up for a bunch of Emmys, Elaine,"

"But you're the one who is up for lead actress in a comedy series," Elaine starts poking her arm, and Jade tightens her smile while she runs her hand over the dresses on the rack.

"Found anything you like, Jade?" Jade turned to the costume designer for the show.

"Elaine likes that one, but I think it's a little…" Jade points to the one Elaine was holding

and turns back to the rack when she hears a tiny giggle coming into the hotel room.

"Who is that, Kady?" Jade walks towards her fianceé and daughter.

"Mama." Kady smiles and reaches for Jade. Jade gladly takes her into her arms, and Kady starts to try to pull out Jade's curlers.

"No, no, baby girl, those need to stay in." Jade kisses her daughter's tiny hand. Kady's blue eyes wander to the dress rack, "wanna help Momma pick a dress?"

"Having trouble?" Beck follows Jade and Kady towards the dress rack while Jade places Kady on the floor, and she immediately starts touching all of the dresses.

"Just nothing is speaking to me,"

"I think she's being picky," Elaine pops a raspberry into her mouth.

"You've known her for almost a year, and you are just now figuring that out? Took me less than a week," Beck smiles before receiving a pinch. "Ouch." Beck quickly captures Jade into his arms and starts to tickle her.

"Beck. You can sleep on the couch!" Elaine smiles at the young couple.

"Hey, you two," Jade and Beck stop and look at Elaine, who is pointing to the rack, "looks like Kady picked," Jade looks to see that Kady was playing with a deep purple chiffon mermaid-style gown. "Now let's go get our make-up finished while Mommy finishes getting ready, baby girl." Elaine scoops up Kady and takes her to the make-up table.

"Our daughter has good taste," Beck smiles down at Jade while the runs her hand over the dress.

"She really does. It's going to look amazing, and I'm going to have one of the best accessories,"

"What's that?"

"You." Jade smiles at Beck before pulling him into a kiss.

Jade pulls out her phone and posts a photo from earlier with her in curlers, her black satin robe, slippers and Kady on her hip in her pajamas looking out the hotel window.

"Jade! Jade! Jade! Over here!" Jade smiles at the cameras, striking multiple poses. Beck stands to the side.

"You look amazing," Beck wraps his arm around Jade's back, and Jade smiles lovingly at him. He places a tender kiss on her forehead.

"You don't look half bad, either." Jade and Beck lock eyes before turning back towards the cameras.

"Jadey!" Cat comes walking up to Jade and Beck.

"Cat!" Jade looks at her best friend surprised before pulling in for a hug, "what are you doing here?!"

"Well, John asked me to be his plus one so I could be here for you instead of texting you from my living room! Of course, I accepted because it's not like I was going to miss your first awards show!" Cat smiles at Jade before bringing her in for another hug.

"I'm glad you're here."

"I wouldn't miss this for the world."

"Jade! Cat! Over here!" Jade and Cat smile at each other before turning back to the paparazzi.

"And the winner of the Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series is…" Beck tightens his grip on Jade's hand, as she holds her breath. Jade's face appears on screen along with the other nominees, and Beck leans over to softly whisper in her ear which causes her nervousness fade away and a smile to appear.

"Jade West!" Jade lets a large, beaming smile show on her face as she stands up, embracing her co-stars and Cat, and finally Beck, who gives her a brief kiss. She walks up to the stage and takes the Emmy from the presenter before standing in front of the mic.

"Wow, this thing is a lot heavier than it looks. First off, thank you for the nomination. It was an honor and it's an even bigger honor to win because that means that all those people who cast me as an understudy or for a small role and not the lead were wrong, and my favorite thing to do is to prove people wrong. I love it almost as much as I hate people who get too excited when they win awards. Come on people, you were nominated, it shouldn't be that big of a shock. Anyway, I want to say thank you to everyone on our crew at SDRR. I wouldn't be here without you because you make me look good and help me work the show schedule around my courses. To my cast, thank you for making my first big role so remarkable, and making me feel at home and loved. To Denis, thank you for taking a chance on an eighteen-year-old girl from LA, who was six-months pregnant. I will always be grateful to you. To my family and friends, thank you for all the support especially my best friend, Cat, who loves to send me funny memes that never cease to put a smile on my face. To my daughter, Kady, I hope that one day you know all of this work and time is for your future and trying to give you the best life I can, and to show you that you can do whatever you want despite nay-sayers because if I can go to school full-time, act on a TV show, and still be there to tuck you in at night…I hope that shows you that there is nothing that you can't do. Finally, to Beck. I love you. You've been by my side for the last six years and you've driven me to be the best actor and mom that I can be, so this award is just as much yours as it is mine. Except my name is on it, so that means that it's more mine so we'll just have to get you your own. Thank you." Jade waves to the crowd, which erupts into applause, before being guided off the stage.

Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll went on to win one of their other three nominations for Outstanding Original Music and Lyrics, but as Jade cuddled with Beck in the back of the car clutching her award, she couldn't help but smile.

"So, you know…" Beck pulls Jade onto his lap, "we have the apartment to ourselves tonight," Beck smiles and peppers kisses along Jade's jawline.

"And a huge project due on Friday…"

"But tonight," Beck places a finger on her lips, "is all about you." Jade smiles and captures Beck's lips with hers.
